Teachers and Sikh Students in the Classroom
Teachers have a unique opportunity to provide a Sikh student with a positive learning environment. This photograph shows a teacher interacting with her students, one of whom is a Sikh.Education is a very powerful tool for promoting cross cultural understanding and reducing bias incidents. Teachers who encourage students to feel comfortable participating in class activities by making them feel welcome, ensure a positive experience for the entire classroom. Teachers help students accept each other when they are taught that the differences making each of them unique, are interesting, and valuable to the diverse society which makes up America.
